Chapter 25: Destroying Demons

"This guy is still a formation mage?"

The sudden appearance of the old man was expected by a few people, after all, Jiang Xiaoqi had vaguely revealed it in front of the stone statue, so there was not much surprise in everyone's hearts. However, listening to the conversation between the old man and Jiang Xiaoqi, as well as the scene that happened in front of them, several people had already guessed the meaning, and after understanding, everyone couldn't help but be surprised in their hearts, they never thought that Jiang Xiaoqi would have such an identity.

As the inheritance disciples of the Holy Land, they naturally knew the difficulty of cultivating soul power, and compared to spiritual power, such an elusive thing as soul power could be said to have made them suffer a lot. And now, such a young man has made great achievements in soul power, and then became a formation mage, how can such a talent not surprise them.

Jiang Xiaoqi obviously didn't know what a few people were thinking, at this time, his mind was in the empty sea of souls, standing facing the old man. Jiang Xiaoqi also knows a thing or two about the situation in front of him, and he knows very well that he is very aware of the spirit rune master who has reached a certain realm, and only with the support of strong soul power can he have the qualification to enter the soul sea of others, obviously, the old man in front of him is one of them. Provided, of course, that the latter is defenseless.

"The spirit rune master is guided by his own strength to hook the heavens and the earth, so as to obtain supreme power, and he is optimistic. ”

In the sea of souls, the illusory figure of the old man was light and suspended, and a series of spiritual runes flew out of the wide sleeved robe, which were completely drawn by spiritual power, and filled the vast sea of stars and souls. In the outside world, Jiang Xiaoqi, who had his eyes closed, opened his eyes, and the vicissitudes of time came naturally.

Immediately afterwards, a shocking scene like a sea of souls emerged from the outside world, Jiang Xiaoqi's body was wrapped in spiritual power, and one after another spirit runes flashed out, and the azure light jumped happily, and it could be found that on these flashing spirit runes, all kinds of different patterns were outlined, which was extremely strange.

With the wave of Jiang Xiaoqi's palm, one after another azure spirit runes floated out, and in an instant, they were all over the corners of the main hall, and the azure light filled the entire hall, such a scene was extremely visually impactful.

The azure spiritual power runes permeated all corners of the main hall, beating rhythmically, and the eyes of the few people present all fell on 'Jiang Xiaoqi', and their eyes flashed with surprise. As disciples of the Holy Land, several people have good knowledge, but the concept of spirit rune master only exists in theory, and it is not seen until today.

In the Great War a thousand years ago, for some reason, the spirit rune master disappeared, as if he had been cursed. And now there are very few spirit rune masters left on the continent, and most of them are not in a high realm. It was precisely because of this that the few people next to the stone statue showed such a surprised look in their eyes after seeing the jumping spirit runes surging around 'Jiang Xiaoqi'.

"Is this the real talisman?"

In the empty soul sea, Jiang Xiaoqi looked at the spiritual power runes that were floating in front of him, and his pupils showed admiration. Although he had witnessed the battle image of the old man in the past, it was only as a bystander after the fact, and it was far less real than the personal experience at this time.

"Hmph, with this kid's spiritual power, I'm afraid he won't even be able to condense a spiritual array. ”

Looking at the azure spirit runes permeating the main hall, 'Gu Chi' sneered, his eyes fell on 'Jiang Xiaoqi' not far in front of him, and his words were full of sarcasm. As a former opponent, 'Gu Chi' was naturally very clear about the old man's methods, and he had been tortured in these complicated spirit arrays, leaving him with a deep shadow.

But at the same time, Gu Chi is also very clear that the condensation of the spirit rune must have enough spiritual power as a foundation, once upon a time, the old man in front of him waved his hand is a thousand spirit runes, and a movement of his mind will rain down the world-destroying thunder punishment, how can he be as high-spirited at that time, fine condensation of each spirit rune.

Although 'Gu Chi's words were full of sarcasm, it was not unreasonable, in terms of Jiang Xiaoqi's realm cultivation, the spirit runes that could be condensed were probably difficult to condense even a spirit array, and this was the gap brought about by spiritual power cultivation.

"This kind of cultivation realm is indeed a bit difficult. ”

For 'Gu Chi''s words, 'Jiang Xiaoqi' quite agreed, but there was no disappointment on the latter's face, and instead his gaze fell on every spirit rune suspended in the main hall, and the vicissitudes of life flashed with brilliance in his pupils.

"It's better to strike first. ”

Looking at the flat look on 'Jiang Xiaoqi's face, a touch of gloom flashed under Gu Chi's eyes, and he was still a little afraid of this former opponent. After all, he was able to drag it to the fall, relying on the old man's seriously injured body, although the old man has fallen now, but out of instinct, he still feels that it is best to strike first.

"Magic Crown"

With a hoarse roar, the figure of 'Gu Chi' burst out, and the dark evil aura enveloped him, and the next moment, the figure of 'Gu Chi' swelled rapidly in the shocked gaze of several people, and the evil aura mixed with the cold wind whistled in all corners of the main hall, and even the azure spirit runes dimmed a little everywhere he passed.

"Roar"

With a dull roar, the black aura gradually converged, clinging to the huge figure of 'Gu Chi'. At this time, he no longer has the thin appearance he once had, his bulging body is surrounded by black aura like a demon from hell, his body is huge and ten meters high, his eyes are like huge lanterns on the street at night, and the 'Gu Chi' in front of him has long lost his human appearance, and his appearance looks like a tyrannical orangutan, beating his chest in anger.

"This breath is terrifying. ”

Standing in the barrier of the stone statue, Yan Hao's eyes were solemn, looking at the huge figure standing in the main hall, and he couldn't help but take a step back. Despite the barrier protection of the stone statues, everyone could clearly feel the evil aura surging in the main hall.

"Is this a monster?"

Being in the sea of souls, Jiang Xiaoqi could also clearly see everything that happened in the outside world, staring at the huge body in the main hall, Jiang Xiaoqi's pupils couldn't help but shrink, and he muttered in a deep voice.

"Roar"

With a roar, 'Gu Chi' opened his bloody mouth, and the viscous black liquid dripped down, and at the same time emitted a thick stench. Immediately after, a large ball of swarthy black condensed from his mouth, and the deep color seemed to be able to swallow people's minds. The next moment, an evil black ball shot out from Gu Chi's mouth, and the eerie cold aura was like a scythe from hell, swinging mercilessly.

"Condensation"

Looking at the behemoth in the main hall, 'Jiang Xiaoqi''s eyes condensed slightly, and then, I saw that his palm was quickly sealed, and the azure aura that permeated the hall began to converge at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon all of them converged in front of 'Jiang Xiaoqi', condensing into a solid defensive shield.

"Boom"

The dark evil ball fell in response to the sound and smashed fiercely on the defensive shield condensed in front of 'Jiang Xiaoqi', and the dazzling brilliance immediately flourished, bursting out with fierce fire. The powerful shock wave swept away, shaking the hall for a while, and even the barrier outside the stone statue caused a layer of ripples, and the rubble splashed, filling the air with a large cloud of smoke and dust.

"Boom"

The smoke and dust dissipated, and the huge body of 'Gu Chi' swept out quickly, but the seemingly bulky figure seemed extremely flexible, and with a loud roar, he came straight to 'Jiang Xiaoqi', and his heavy footsteps made the hall shake for a while. When he came closer, 'Gu Chi' raised his fist and smashed it, and the fist the size of the rockery was wrapped in a majestic evil aura, and without the slightest fancy, it smashed down fiercely at the figure of 'Jiang Xiaoqi'.

"Hmph"

With a light snort, 'Jiang Xiaoqi' dodged and retreated, and the spirit runes condensed in front of him changed again, spliced freely, and finally condensed into a huge light hammer, which was held by the petite 'Jiang Xiaoqi'. Immediately afterwards, I saw 'Jiang Xiaoqi' waving his arms together, and the sledgehammer with aura brought gusts of wind, directly meeting the huge fist of 'Gu Chi'.

A blow without any fancy fell violently, accompanied by a dull sound, and the two bodies, one large and one small, flew back and shot out backwards. 'Gu Chi''s huge body was shocked backwards, and the black demonic qi around him became a little messy, stepping back into several big pits in the hall along the way, and with his muffled snort, the soles of his feet stepped on the ground, which stopped his backward figure.

On the other hand, at the same time as the 'Jiang Xiaoqi' on the opposite side of the body flew back, the spirit rune that had originally condensed into a spiritual light sledgehammer changed again, turning into a soft barrier, appearing behind him, dragging his backward figure steadily, and standing in the main hall.

"Bang Bang Bang"

The continuous attack rained down like drops, and the dull rumbling sound was incessant, and the hall was so full of chaos that there was hardly a complete corner in sight, only eight huge pillars stood still.

A few figures standing under the stone statue, looking at the fierce battle in the main hall, their eyes flashed with excitement, such a battle is the most valuable wealth for them, whether it is 'Jiang Xiaoqi''s use of spirit runes, or his handling of crises in the battle, there are all kinds of them, it is worth learning from them.

And as the main master, Jiang Xiaoqi, who was standing in the vast soul sea, was the same, the old man fought with his body, bringing the most direct feeling, through every inch of skin on his body, he clearly perceived it.

"Boom"

Another blow fell, and the two figures separated and stood in the messy hall, standing far away.

"Spirit runes are ever-changing, and you must not stick to one way, and you can never go far on this road if you are imprisoned by your thoughts. ”

In the sea of souls, the illusory figure of the old man stroked his beard, and said to Jiang Xiaoqi beside him with a kind gaze, and at the same time explained the many essentials of the spirit rune change. In this regard, Jiang Xiaoqi listened respectfully, he knew that the old man was teaching him the cultivation essentials of the spirit rune with the help of battle.

"Roar"

In the main hall, 'Gu Chi' roared, his scarlet eyes revealed a killing intent, obviously his strength was stronger, but in front of the old man's complex and changeable strange skills, all his attacks were like a punch on cotton, and he couldn't use his strength at all, which made his heart full of rage.

"You already have the experience, and you need to go on your own in the future. ”

Kindly glanced at Jiang Xiaoqi beside him, the old man's eyes showed approval, and he was very happy in his heart for this disciple who had been accepted over thousands of years. Although the latter has not really set foot in the line of spirit rune masters, his talents are excellent. The little guy not only has a talent in the spirit rune master's lineage, but also has excellent cultivation of spiritual power, and the majesty of his spiritual power and the condensation of his heritage are extremely rare among his peers, and his future road will definitely go further than himself, the only pity is...

"Little guy, no matter what path you choose in the future, remember to stick to your heart, don't care what the world thinks, just follow your own path. ”

In the end, the old man looked at Jiang Xiaoqi's gaze with a touch of complexity, and said such a word to him who was full of doubts in front of him. Although he didn't know why, Jiang Xiaoqi still nodded yes and remembered it in his heart.

"Okay, what should be taught has also been taught, now let the grudge of 10,000 years ago be over. ”

After finishing speaking, with a move of the old man's illusory palm, Jiang Xiaoqi saw that all the spirit runes suspended in the main hall had gathered, and then rushed towards the huge stone statue behind Huo Xin'er and the others, and drilled into the jade stone book held by the stone statue in his hand. The next moment, everyone saw a gentle golden light spreading from the stone book, enveloping the entire hall.

"Buzz"

And at the moment when the golden light appeared, I saw that in the eight stone pillars standing in the main hall, each stone statue in which it was located shot out a ray of light, intertwined with each other, the golden light flashed, and the dense lines were scattered, and finally condensed into a large array, like a cage upside down, directly enveloping the behemoth in the main hall.

The behemoth more than ten meters tall barely stopped at the moment when the large array fell upside down, and he wanted to dodge and escape, but at this time, his surroundings were already filled with golden light, and every brutal collision would be bounced back by the large array condensed by the golden light. With an angry roar, the behemoth full of evil aura was easily suppressed by the large array, and its body shrank rapidly, and finally turned into the original Gu Chi appearance.

"Deprivation"

As the suppression of the large array fell, 'Jiang Xiaoqi' flashed over, his eyes were flat, and he couldn't see the slightest fluctuation in his expression. Immediately, I saw Jiang Xiaoqi's body tremble, and an illusory figure slowly appeared in the main hall, looking at the suppressed 'Gu Chi' in the big array, and the low words sounded at this time.

Immediately, the handprint under the illusory figure of the old man changed, and then, everyone saw that the 'Gu Chi', who was locked by the golden light array, began to overflow with a dark evil aura around his body, and the seven orifices were spreading, and he was forcibly deprived of Gu Chi's body by the golden light, and finally condensed into a dark bead, which was held in the palm of the palm by the old man's increasingly illusory figure.

"Little one, there is still a long way to go, remember what I said. ”

After doing all this, the old man turned around slowly, looked at Jiang Xiaoqi in front of him with kind eyes, and said with a little relief. Then, the illusory figure of the old man burned slowly in the complicated eyes of everyone, and the golden flames all over his body began to spread from the bottom to the top, burning together with the evil beads held by the old man's hands, burning away in the holy golden light, and finally turning into a point of light in the sky, dissipating in the main hall.

"The disciple sends off the teacher. ”

Looking at the old man who dissipated in front of him, Jiang Xiaoqi's nose was sour, his hands were clenched into fists, he bowed in the direction where the old man disappeared, and made a disciple salute, his eyes flashing with reluctance. The old man not only has a master-apprentice affection for himself, but also a life-saving grace, no matter what the reason, he should do this salute.

Behind Jiang Xiaoqi, several people also owed their bodies, watching the old man leave, and the grace of saving his life was worthy of them.

"Congratulations to Junior Brother Jiang for being able to inherit the Spirit Rune Master. ”

After the salute, a smile flashed across Yan Hao's bloated face, and the joy of the rest of his life hung on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly opened his mouth to Jiang Xiaoqi in front of him, and congratulated him like this.

"yes, nerd, congratulations. ”

Huo Xin'er agreed with Yan Hao's words, and came to Jiang Xiaoqi with a smile, gently poked him with her lotus arm, her beautiful eyes blinked slightly, and she once again returned to her previous appearance.

"Hiss"

Huo Xin'er's light made the corners of Jiang Xiaoqi's mouth pull involuntarily, and she couldn't help but gasp. The previous injuries had not healed, and the old man fought with the help of his body, Jiang Xiaoqi at this time could be described as full of holes, and the severe pain swept through his body, as if his whole body was about to fall apart.

"Don't be so hypocritical, you will die if you touch it lightly. ”

Jiang Xiaoqi's appearance immediately provoked Huo Xin'er's laughter, and then he stretched out his finger and poked the former's arm a few times, which immediately attracted the former's glare.

"I think so, everyone has injuries, so it's better to recover from their injuries here first, and then discuss the next thing. ”

Seeing this, Yan Hao spoke up again, and said as he looked at the bloodstained several people.

"Hmm"

For Yan Hao's proposal, everyone has no objection, after all, after a big battle, the few people present have all appeared large and small injuries on their bodies, and the danger in this place has been lifted, so it is better to adjust the state here and then make plans.

There was no objection, everyone looked at each other, sat cross-legged, and the next moment, a slightly dim spiritual light diffused from under everyone's bodies, and began to repair the injuries in their bodies.

"Whoosh"

Not long after everyone was immersed in healing, suddenly, Gu Chi, who was lying on the ground, suddenly got up, surrounded by light, his body flashed, and a sharp dagger stabbed out from between his palms, heading straight for Ximeng's white jade neck. Such a short distance is difficult to avoid even Ximeng, let alone Gu Chi pretending to be unconscious and then sneak attacking.

Seeing that the sharp dagger was about to pierce into Ximeng's jade neck, suddenly, a palm appeared out of thin air, holding the sharp dagger tightly, making it difficult for it to move in the slightest. But at the same time, the fierce aura also pierced the palm of the clenched hand in an instant, and drops of blood fell.

"Boom"

The aura gathered, and a brutal blow blasted out, smashing Gu Chi's body, and the huge force shook his whole person out, spilling a large amount of blood along the way, and slamming it on the stone pillar of the main hall. The wind whistled, and a sharp dagger struck, and in an instant, the scene sank into Gu Chi's heart.

Looking at Jiang Xiaoqi who suddenly appeared in front of Ximeng, Gu Chi's pupils were full of unwillingness, he would never have thought that he would die in the hands of a kid who was not in the Yangxi Realm.

"Little Brother Jiang"

"Nerd"

"Jiang Gongzi"

The dull sound broke everyone's immersion, and the moment they opened their eyes, they saw Jiang Xiaoqi's blood-drenched palm, as well as Gu Chi, who was blasted out by it, and immediately hurriedly stood up and stepped forward to ask.

"It's fine, I just didn't think this guy was dead. ”

With a chuckle, Jiang Xiaoqi pinched the meridians at his wrist to slow down the flow of blood, and said so relieved to the few people beside him.

"Thank you Childe for the rescue. ”

"I'll help you bandage it. ”

Regarding Gu Chi's sneak attack, even Ximeng's keen consciousness was not noticed. It's not that she's unconscious, it's that she was the most seriously injured in the previous battle, so much so that she was immersed in healing and didn't notice everything in the hall, which gave Gu Chi the opportunity to sneak attack.

With a slight nod on his chin, Xi Mengbei's teeth opened lightly, and he thanked Jiang Xiaoqi beside him.

The light voice fell, and I saw a flash of inspiration in Xi Mengyu's hand, and an emerald green jade vial appeared, the mouth of the bottle went down, and some white powder was poured out and sprinkled on Jiang Xiaoqi's wound. Then, I saw Ximeng bring a light blue handkerchief and put it on Jiang Xiaoqi's palm, and he was about to help him wrap it.

However, Ximeng forgot that he had never done such a trivial thing, but the current situation could not stop there, so under Ximeng's somewhat clumsy bandaging, soon, Jiang Xiaoqi's palm had an extra bow. As if he was afraid that the effect of stopping the bleeding would be minimal, Ximeng finally pulled hard, and the powerful force suddenly made Jiang Xiaoqi's complexion become exciting.

"Eldest sister, you learned this bandaging technique from the pig killer. ”

Looking at Jiang Xiaoqi's grinning appearance, Huo Xin'er on the side couldn't help laughing, and leaned over to Ximeng's side and teased, but was blocked by Ximeng's white eyes.

"Thank you, thank you Miss Ximeng. ”

Holding back the tingling sensation in his palm, Jiang Xiaoqi nodded lightly, pulling the corners of his mouth and thanking Ximeng in front of him.

......

Three days passed in bits and pieces, and after some twists and turns, the ancient tomb regained its original tranquility, but the pungent smell of blood was extraordinarily strong, and it could only be digested slowly with the passage of time.

At this time, there were five young figures standing in the messy hall, dressed differently, looking at the bronze coffin behind the stone statue, their pupils flashing with excitement.

In three days, everyone's injuries have almost recovered, such as Yan Hao and Huo Xin'er, who are slightly injured, and their injuries have healed on the first day. And Ximeng is also under the fresh grass given by Jiang Xiaoqi, and his strength has recovered nearly ninety percent, as for Jiang Xiaoqi, except for the drowsiness brought by the sea of souls, there is no big problem.

"If the guess is correct, what is stored here should be the spiritual source. ”

The five of them stood side by side, their eyes falling on the coffin in front of them. On the side, Yan Hao, who was slightly bloated, rubbed his hands and said with some excitement.

"Let's open the coffin"

Seeing the fat man's almost drooling appearance, Qi Yunqing on the side glanced at him with disgust, then spoke, pushed him out, and motioned him to open the coffin.

Yan Hao, who was pushed forward, glanced at Qi Yunqing behind him resentfully, and reluctantly stepped forward, his fleshy palm rubbing the hanging bronze coffin, and his face surged with excitement that could not be concealed.

"On"

With a leap of his body, Yan Hao's body was full of aura, and his hands were pushed out at the same time, patting on the bronze coffin in front of him, and the next moment, a dazzling light diffused from the coffin and was reflected on Yan Hao's cheeks. The golden light passed, and the fat man hurriedly poked his head over, looking into the coffin, and then everyone heard Yan Hao's exclamation next to the coffin.

"It's... Lingyuan Crystal?"
